Our Hydrogen Plasma Video
If the video looks choppy, try
this link.
1 liter distilled water. 0.2 molar concentration of K2CO3.
Tungsten Cathode. Stainless Steel Anode. The anode is the big piece of sheet metal with all the holes in it. The Cathode is the little (< 1/8 inch diameter) TIG welding rod with the purple plasma shivering around it. For Plasma to form, the surface area of the Cathode (Negative Electrode, generating Hydrogen) must be 1/3 or less than the surface area of the Anode (Positive, generating Oxygen). The relationship between the current drawn through the cell, and the surface area of an electrode, is called Current Density. This is an important concept to keep in mind when designing your cell. In this case, the surface area of the Anode is much more than 3 times that of the Cathode. I got the Tungsten rod at a welding shop called PRAXAIR. $12 for three of them. They also sell Tungsten Carbide and Thoriated (?) Tungsten rods. These are TIG welding rods. "Tungsten Inert Gas" welding.
On JL Naudin's "Cold Fusion" pages, he says that TIG rods that are not 100% Tungsten may work better for the purpose here. He has a great deal of wonderful useful information. I highly recommend his website.

Good night and god bless.
